We Make Jesus Weep By Our Actions

Maybe we should turn this round, Change our ignorance

We Make Jesus Weep By Our Actions

Children cry in broken houses

Families sleep beneath despair

While greed keeps building golden kingdoms

Without a single prayer or care

People preach about forgiveness

Then spread hatred through the land

Judging souls they barely know

With cruelty resting in their hands

We make Jesus weep by our actions

Through every lie and selfish deed

Turning faith into division

Ignoring those in desperate need

Wars are fought for pride and power

Bodies fall beneath the skies

Still humanity keeps marching

Blind beneath corrupted lies

Some wear crosses round their necks

Still wound others every day

Speaking scripture from their mouths

While their hearts have lost the way

The poor grow poorer through the system

The rich keep feeding off the weak

Still heaven watches every action

Even words we never speak

Maybe love was always simple

Feed the hungry comfort pain

Treat each soul with basic kindness

Help the hopeless rise again

Until we learn compassion fully

And place truth above our pride

We will keep making Jesus weep

Watching goodness slowly die
